QuotePhiladelphia Daily News
Reid indicated that the Eagles were talking to Brodrick Bunkley's agent, Gary Wichard, but the defensive tackle remained unsigned and missed his 21st and 22d practices of training camp.
Reid, who said he had not spoken to Bunkley, was asked if he was taking the defensive tackle's absence personally.
"There is a whole team here," he said. "There is a whole team that is trying to get better. It's not all about me, and it's not all about Brodrick right now. It's all about the football team. He needs to be here so he can get better and help the football team get better."
I think his duties with the Fantastic Four haven't been resolved.

per Eskin:
- Bunkley is talking to no one. His agent told him not to talk to anyone.
- The number of personal calls Andy made to Bunkley is over 15 calls, and not one returned.
- The Eagles he knows for a FACT have told his agent they'll do 5 or 6 years.
- The agent submitted a 6 year proposal to the Eagles. The Eagles agreed except for one minor issue with the bonus. Then Wichard took it back and decided he didn't want the deal.
per eskin = "what ive been told"
meaning banner and/or reid and/or heckert and/or lurie told him to say all that
I thought you were Eskin's caddie, IGY?
Now you're doggin' him?
Sheesh... what's the world come to?

i love eskin but hes an eagle lackey on par with the likes of you
not saying everything he said wasnt true...but it has to be taklen as seriously as if wichard were to come out and make a statement in the press as the eagles and their 'people' have...that is with a huge grain of salt

Yes, it was the South Park creators' take on how "Family Guy" episodes are put together.
It's also how Bunkley's agent negotiates.

QuoteTEAMS USING SIX-YEAR DEALS BECAUSE THEY CAN
We're told that the pending contract disputes between the Dolphins and the Eagles and their respective first-round picks is a direct result of the recent CBA negotiations. As part of the deal, contracts are now limited in length, with six years being the longest term for the first 16 picks in round one, five years the maximum for the next 16 picks, and four years for the rest of the class.
So because teams now can't cram five-year deals down the throats of second-round picks, we're told that some of the teams with the ability to insist on six-year deals are doing so simply because they can.
That's the thinking regarding the current positions taken by the Eagles and the Dolphins, even though in 2005 most if not all of the first-rounders below the top two picks got five-year deals.
And the problem is that, for players taken beneath the top five spots, it's generally not a good thing to be saddled with a six-year deal. But although past precedent suggests a five-year contract for the No. 14 and No. 16 picks, the Eagles and Fins are believed to be taking a hard line pursuant to a "you asked for it, you got it" attitude toward the NFLPA and the new CBA.
And if Brodrick Bunkley and Jason Allen ink six-year deals, they'll be tied up through 2011, missing out on free agency during the first two years in which the cap approaches and/or exceeds $150 million.
If Bunkley becomes a star, the Eagles will tear up his contract long before the sixth year.
That's their M.O. and either Wichard is too stupid to understand that or he's just plain ignorant.
Of course, that works both ways too. I think the Eagles are being pigheaded as well because if Bunkley ends up sucking, they'd probably want to kick his ass to the curb long before the fifth or sixth year of the deal comes about.
Either way, both sides in this deal are acting stupidly.
I still think it's hilariously retarded if this is the hold-up. Here are the possible scenarios:
1a. Bunkley signs for 6 years, and he plays well and proves to be a starting-caliber DT.
Result: Eagles offer to extend his contract after no more than 3 or 4 years in the league. If negotiations stall, he's holding out by the 5th or 6th year anyway.
1b. Bunkley signs for 6 years, and he proves to be mediocre-to-poor against NFL-caliber players.
Result: Bunkley is glad he got the larger signing bonus. Eagles are glad that he's playing for minimal yearly salary by years 5 and 6.
2a. Bunkley signs for 5 years, and he plays well and proves to be a starting-caliber DT.
Result: Same as 6 years, only instead of holding out in the 6th year, he's a free agent. If the Eagles didn't extend him before the end of his 5th year in the league, they weren't going to re-sign him anyway.
2b. Bunkley signs for 5 years, and he proves to be mediocre-to-poor against NFL-caliber players.
Result: Eagles are happy, because they gave him a smaller bonus. Bunkley is either happy to get a change of scenery no later than 5 years into the league, or he sucked anyway so it doesn't matter.
It simply doesn't make sense to either side that the hold-up is simply a 5/6 year issue. I would guess it's something more along the lines that the agent is asking for a contract that easily voids with minimal performance incentives but still has the signing bonus akin to a 6-year-deal. That would make more sense.
did anyone hear lurie yesterday at the state of team address deny that he ever said the gold standard comment...he said it was someone and that it got attributed to him....dont ask why you would deny sdaying something that everyone in the world watched and heard you say it
wip has been playing the interview all morning of lurie actually saying it
"the rest of the league looks at us as the gold standard"...then they play that nelly song where he goes "oh oh...oh oh"....better heard than typed...funny sjit tho
not surprising that his train wreck of a press conference isnt being discussed here but he did anyone also hear him say how character is the most important thing in any player
awesome!
^^^ Deserves its own thread. ^^^
:yay
Deserves its own thread
it only doesnt because we are on a team message board (which are by nature ultra biased) and the owner looked like a complete and utter fool...so i understand why it wouldnt be important here
but to me...wherever you come down on what was said....the state of the team address is very important...and absolutely should be discussed in its own thread...it happens once a year and is conducted by the man who OWNS the team...
yeah..and just like the state of the union address..it's nothing but a flood of PR bullshtein spewing from the mouth of a patently untrustworthy person.

boring.
he should now hold out until they renegotiate his deal
he may be a stupid (for not signing sooner), but he's not an arsehole..
per ESPN Radio, the deal is 6 years, $17.5 mil... nearly $10 mil guaranteed.
QuoteEagles first-round pick Brodrick Bunkley is ready to end a 16-day holdout Friday by agreeing to a six-year, $17.5 million deal that includes $9.775 million in guarantees.
Based on playing time, the deal could max out between $25 million and $30 million, but Bunkley can reasonably expect to earn a little less than $3 million annually during his six-year contract.
Bunkley, the 14th pick in the NFL draft, missed 16 days of camp. The 6-foot-2, 300-pound defensive tackle won't play in Sunday's game against Oakland.
The agreement with Bunkley leaves three unsigned first-rounders: Matt Leinart of the Cardinals, Donte Whitner of the Bills and Jason Allen of the Dolphins.
Bunkley's signing could speed up talks to end Allen's holdout in Miami. Allen was selected two picks after Bunkley and could reach a settlement once each side learns the details of the Bunkley agreement.
The holdout basically came down to the final year of the contract. The Eagles wanted a sixth year on the contract even though past Eagles contracts have been five-year deals. Normally, mid-first-round picks get five-year deals.
Bunkley and the Eagles reached a settlement Friday morning by giving Bunkley escalators in the final year that could escalate his final year salary to between $3 million and possibly as high as the franchise number for defensive tackles that year based on his performance and playing time.
The Eagles selected Bunkley to fill a glaring need in the middle of a line that hardly generated a strong rush on quarterbacks last season. At Florida State, Bunkley proved to be a versatile player who can rush the passer and stuff the run. He had nine sacks, 66 tackles and two fumble recoveries as a senior.
On a side note, it's hilarious that Donte Whitner hasn't signed yet. He was a severe reach at #8.

He wants money similar to Michael Huff from what I heard on NFL radio the other day.
And because the Bills chose him with the #8 pick, he should get money similar to the #7 pick.
Eskin claims it's only $12M. Whatever
So I'm watching the live practice footage and I still cannot get over how fargin strong Bunkley is. This is is simply dominating every OL that they put against him in 1-1's. His legs are like tree trunks. He beat Nick Cole so bad on one play he drove him back 15 yards.

QuoteHe needs to be in football shape. Agreed. He missed a lot of time. You don't catch up on that quickly. This is why holding out is so stupid. As good as Bunkley looks and as well as he's playing, it's too late for him to contribute this year because he held out.

I agree with Phreak's take.
Everyone who has watched Patterson play knows he's been very good. He's just saying that Bunkley looks like he's going to be that much better.

QuoteTruncated camp has not cramped Bunkley's progress
The rookie Bird might be ready for flight soon.
By Marc Narducci
Inquirer Staff Writer
Defensive tackle Brodrick Bunkley is moving up the depth chart faster than he is getting to the quarterback, but both have been done in rapid fashion.
The Eagles' first-round pick reached another milestone by practicing with the first unit for the first time yesterday afternoon at the NovaCare Complex.
Bunkley was drafted to be a starter, but after he missed 29 training-camp practices and a preseason game because of a contract holdout, the coaches noted how far behind he was in learning the complex defensive system.
Though the Eagles aren't anointing Bunkley a starter just yet, his practicing with the first-string defenders was another significant achievement as he makes up for lost time.
"It's a lot of pressure," Bunkley said about working with the first unit. "You can't let your teammates down, and that is one thing that will hang over my head."
After pausing, he added: "But you get out here and practice hard and see what comes."
What could come is a starting spot when the Eagles open the regular season Sept. 10 in Houston.
It's not surprising that Bunkley is considered a starting candidate. The Eagles didn't give him a six-year, $12.7 million contract with $9.77 million guaranteed to sit on the bench.
Yet he missed so much time that they were worried about his learning curve and his stamina. His stamina remains a concern.
"I think the biggest thing with him is to make sure he gets into playing shape," defensive coordinator Jim Johnson said. "He's willing, he's working at it, and he's doing a pretty good job."
Bunkley, who had nine sacks last season for Florida State, made an impression during his first practice Aug. 8 with his ability to get to the quarterback.
After just one practice in pads, he played two series and had a quarterback hurry in the Eagles' 20-7 win over Cleveland on Aug. 10.
Bunkley played the third quarter in Thursday's 20-10 loss at Baltimore and recorded 11/2 sacks and three tackles.
The Eagles will give him an expanded role in Friday's 8 p.m. game at Lincoln Financial Field against Pittsburgh.
"He played 20 plays last week," Johnson said. "We're going to play him a lot more this week."
Last year's first-round pick, Mike Patterson, will be a starter at defensive tackle. The other is listed as Darwin Walker, who remains out with a fractured rib.
Last week against Baltimore, veteran Sam Rayburn started at tackle with Patterson.
Bunkley said the short-range goal is to improve his endurance.
"I still have a ways to go," he said about his conditioning. "I'm still not where I want to be, and this is the heaviest I've been in a while."
The 6-foot-2 Bunkley, who did extra running over the weekend while the team was off, says he has dropped to 310 pounds.
"That's about five pounds over what they want me to play, but I am feeling better and better," he said.
Bunkley has impressed his teammates, especially middle linebacker Jeremiah Trotter. If the rookie clogs up the middle, that would free Trotter to roam and not have to take so many hits from centers.
"Bunkley is a beast," Trotter said affectionately. "He is so strong."
He also possesses tremendous athletic ability, which he showed yesterday by intercepting a Timmy Chang pass. Bunkley downplayed the pick.
"I intended to bat it down, but once I saw how low it was, I snagged it in the air," he said.
Bunkley insists that he didn't set a timetable on working with the starters.
"I kind of told myself to be patient," he said. "When on the field, play with all your heart and might and let time take its course."
